Psalms 115

To Your Name Be the Glory

(Psalm 135:1–21)

1Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your lovingkindness, for your truth.
2Why should the nations say, "Where now is their God?"
3But our God is in the heavens; all that he desired he did.
4Their idols are silver and gold, the work of the hands of man^a.
5They have a mouth, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see;
6they have ears, but they do not hear; they have a nose, but they do not smell;
7their hands, but they do not feel; their feet, but they do not walk; they do not mutter with their throat.
8Like them shall be those who make them, every one who trusts in them.
9O Israel, trust in the LORD; he is their help and their shield.
10O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD; he is their help and their shield.
11You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD; he is their help and their shield.
12The LORD has remembered us; he will bless; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.
13He will bless those who fear the LORD, the small with the great.
14May the LORD add upon you, upon you and upon your children.
15Blessed are you to the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.
16The heavens are heavens to the LORD, but the earth he has given to the sons of man.
17The dead do not praise Yah, nor all who go down into silence.
18But we will bless Yah from now and until forever. Praise Yah!
